Many composite manufacturing processes employ the consolidation of pre-impregnated preforms. However, in order to obtain adequate performance of the formed part, intimate contact and molecular diffusion across the different ...

As well as most polymer materials, adhesives generally exhibit significant viscous behaviour over a wide temperature range. However, strain rate sensitivity, relaxation or creep phenomena are rarely explicitly considered ...

The geometrical qualification of additively manufactured lattice structures has largely focused on the mea-surement of strut diameter, form variations, and surface texture. However, the exterior surfaces of the lattice ...
